The Break-Up (2006)
1/10
misogynistic and unwatchable
25 December 2019
The guy is like a cliché of a typical selfish American man, who lets his wife cook and do the dishes after a hosting dinner while he sits around playing video games with a beer. Seriously... and she "nags" him can you help do the dishes first and he is like ya ya sure later... cringeworthy! The film is so sexist and abusive that I felt sorry for both actress and actor being part of such a tragedy. Not to mention they had zero chemistry, acting like a cartoon version of themselves. It was very painful watch honestly, a couple shouting at each other for the guy being a dickhead. The recent film Marriage Story did what this one tried to do back then, only it was executed masterfully, realistically, with a guy who was not a total douchbag! Am I supposed to feel sorry for Vince for being a turd who drinks beer infront of the tv watching sports while his wife is working alone to entertain their guests? I don't get it.
